Preliminary Investigation at a Mach Number of 1.9 and a Reynolds Number of 2,200,000 of Three Ailerons Applicable to the Bell XS-2 Airplane Design
Report presenting testing of a 42.7 degree sweptback tapered wing with three types of ailerons tested at a Mach number of 1.9 and a Reynolds number of 2,200,000; the wing geometry was similar to that of an XS-2 airplane. The purpose of the investigation was to determine the effectiveness of ailerons at these specified flight characteristics. Results regarding the aerodynamic characteristics of the wing are also provided.

Wind-Tunnel Investigation of the Low-Speed Stability and Control Characteristics of a Model With a Sweptback Vee Tail and a Sweptback Wing
Report presenting testing in the 300 mph tunnel of a model with a sweptback vee tail and a sweptback wing to determine its low-speed stability and control characteristics. The results are compared to testing with the same tail panel with zero dihedral on the same wing-fuselage combination. The longitudinal stability characteristics, downwash at the tail, longitudinal control characteristics, lateral stability characteristics, and rudder control characteristics are provided.
